Waiting Out the Night

from Keeper Of The Light by peter zeldow

/

about

A hymn to insomnia. I particularly like the way the slide guitar and lead guitar lines intertwine. Thanks to Robert Frost, Greg Brown and John Stewart for lyrical help on the bridge. The accompanying photograph and poem by Carma Lynn Park (www.carmalynnpark.com) are used with permission.

lyrics

I'm waiting out the night, Waiting out the night
It's like an invocation
Waiting out the night

I'm wondering can love last, Wondering can love last?
Gonna try and end it graceful
Wondering can love last?

I've got a dream to ride, A fire inside, Ring around the moon
Miles to go before I sleep
Shadows lifting soon

I'm waiting out the night, Waiting out the night
The promise of tomorrow
Waiting out the night

The delivery is understated, but the storytelling packs an emotional wallop that rewards careful listening. ... more
